Answer 1

For what you are trying to achieve, it would be best and easiest just to use a <asp:ListView> control.

There is a good tutorial here on how to use it, and pretty much similar to what you are doing http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2007/08/10/the-asp-listview-control-part-1-building-a-product-listing-page-with-clean-css-ui.aspx

It would basically involve you creating a <asp:ListView> control like;

<asp:ListView ID="ListView1" runat="server">
    <LayoutTemplate>
        <ul>
            <asp:PlaceHolder ID="itemPlaceholder" runat="server" />    
        </ul>                
    </LayoutTemplate>
    <ItemTemplate>
        <li>
             <img src='<%#Eval("PicPath")%>' alt='<%#Eval("UserName")%>' />
        </li>
    </ItemTemplate>
    <EmptyDataTemplate>
        <p>Nothing here.</p>
    </EmptyDataTemplate>
</asp:ListView>

Then binding your data to it.

this.ListView1.DataSource = YourDataSource;
this.ListView1.DataBind();

Answer 2

I suppose your datasource is a DataSet ds that has one DataTable and a field picpath, then you can write the iteration directly in aspx

<ul id="">
    <% foreach (DataRow dr in ds.Tables[0].Rows) { %>

        <li><img src="<% dr[\"picpath\"].ToString() %>" alt="" title=""/></li>

    <% } %>
</ul>
